To those that don't understand the tipping system: There are two options..

1. restaurants could raise all the prices on their menu's or simply add a 10-15% service charge to cover wages. Or..

2. The system we have in place now, where you pay just for your food, and when the service is acceptable you add 10% tip and if it was very good, you add more. This gives servers the incentive to work harder and provide better service.

I eat out a lot and have been to restaurants with both systems and almost with no exception, restaurants that have use the tipping method provides better service.

The reason why other professions don't have a tipping system is because they all charge you the full price, both labor and material (system number 1) whereas in the restaurant business, they separate the two.

Coles: I hate cheap people, (*cough* Mugen Evolution) and I don't even work in the service industry.
lol please dont take internet seriously

lol white decent foods? 15% no problem. cannery, C restaurant, cactus, joey tomatoes etc etc
